First desktop robot released
During the 2026 Cloud Summit, Alibaba's QwenWork officially launched its first desktop robot, QwenNote Eva (without a screen). This desktop terminal, designed with the slogan “Understands work, understands you better,” integrates QwenWork’s core technology with DingTalk’s collaborative infrastructure. The company claims it delivers an intelligent collaboration experience equivalent to “1 Eva = 1 team.” Priced at 899 yuan, the product went on sale at 8:00 PM that evening and is fully compatible with Android, iOS, and HarmonyOS devices.
In its core functionality design, QwenNote Eva emphasizes “one-line command, Eva delivers proactively.” Users can issue complex office tasks through natural language, such as one-click organization of product sales data with HTML generation, creation of AI-powered tables from meeting minutes, sending messages to colleagues, automatically joining weekly meetings, and inviting others to participate. The entire interaction forms an efficient closed loop of “command issuance — multi-platform coordination — result delivery,” covering the full workflow from instantly understanding requirements and proactively seeking clarification to reliably executing tasks and delivering results.
In terms of ecosystem integration and scenario applications, QwenNote Eva deeply integrates with the DingTalk foundation, enabling seamless handling of high-frequency actions such as sending messages, making calls, controlling meetings, and managing calendar reminders. It not only deeply understands local files, web pages, applications, and multimodal information but also directly displays processed results on the PC interface, significantly reducing the friction cost of switching between different software. Whether used as an AI work assistant for brainstorming and business insights, a随时待命 personal assistant, or a practice tool for English language training and mock interviews, it effortlessly delivers.
In terms of interactive experience and emotional companionship, QwenNote Eva supports gaze activation, tap activation, and wake-word activation. When the screen edges light up, it indicates that the device is listening, and it offers mode switches such as Do Not Disturb, Companion, and Rest. Its voice and emotional capabilities are powerfully supported by qwen-audio, featuring a library of over a hundred expressions, three interchangeable eye designs, and multiple emotional expressions. Through visual recognition, emotional understanding, and long-term memory, it delivers a companionship experience that grows more intuitive the more you interact with it.
In terms of hardware configuration and charging performance, this robot features a sleek desktop design with dimensions of approximately 124.8 × 124.8 × 179.3 mm and a weight of about 700g. It integrates a 3-axis motorized gimbal and a magnetic wireless charging structure, enabling the crossbar to rotate approximately ±180 degrees, tilt up to +15 degrees, and pan ±20 degrees. It also includes stylish RGB ambient lighting. For charging, the device supports wide-input voltage and GaN (gallium nitride) fast charging technology, delivering a maximum output power of 65W, with dual Type-C wired charging and magnetic wireless charging, plus Bluetooth BLE5.4 support.
